Lilly Pulitzer - A Colorful Life

Designer Lilly Pulitzer died in Palm Beach, Florida today, Sunday, April 7, 2013. I was a fan of her bright, colorful prints which incorporated some of my favorite motifs -- flamingos, hibiscus, and palm trees. A Lilly fabric was sure to mix colors in bold ways that somehow always worked: Lime green and pink, turquoise and yellow, magentas, purples and blues. Her products always seemed "happy" to me and brought a smile to my face, whether it was a classic Lilly dress, stationery, or a Tervis Tumbler.

About Me

I am lucky to live only two hours from the beach and every time I drive home I'm so relaxed and content that I wonder how I can bring a little bit of the beach back with me. In this blog I will look at all the ways I can bring some of the "Beach Life" back to my home.
